How do you remove 30 tons of garbage and debris from Jersey City streets without it costing the city a dime? You organize hundreds of volunteers to come together on the same day with the notion that every scrap of paper and every empty soda can they pick up will make a difference.

Jersey City is putting out the call again to city residents to do more than just complain about the debris in the streets. The fourth annual Great Jersey City CleanUp is scheduled for April 13, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., city officials announced.
